The books that I made are so perfect to share with them in the future...and who knows how this will turn out or how much time I will have to actually keep it updated but for now I am feeling ambitious!
Here I sit 9 months pregnant with #2 and a brand new 4 year old! Carli had a BIG week! She had "the best birthday ever" and started pre-k. Both emotional for this mama!
Carli wanted a little mermaid party this year and we pulled out all the stops...lots of streamers and balloons, a treasure chest, a mermaid outfit, and a REAL mermaid!! It was so fun for all of us to see her so happy and excited. And boy, did she tear through the presents. I think it was only a preview for what is to come at Christmas time!
Last day as a 3 year old!!
Special doll house from mommy and daddy
Carli day at the trampoline park. Daddy got to jump and mama got to sit in massage chair and snap pictures!
Prettiest little mermaid!
Being crowned an official princess!!!
September 7th she started Pre-k at Hilliard United Methodist Preschool. It is three days a week in the mornings. She was very excited to get there! I was SO proud of her. She was brave and didn't shed a tear. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for me. I started crying before we even left the room...partially because it is super scary to leave your "baby" at a new place but mostly because I was reminded how fast she is growing up. Although she has promised on numerous occasions that she won't get much bigger and she will ALWAYS sit on my lap. After peaking in windows like a mommy-stalker and realizing that she was having a great time, I left....and got a pedicure!
Just a few short hours later, she couldn't wait to share all the details of her day....lots of play time, story time, learning a new song and dance, being the line leader, and meeting new friends. She loved it and can't wait to go back. A relief to us all!!
Now that the first day of school and the big birthday party are behind us, we are in full "baby-watch" mode. I keep joking that I am a ticking time bomb! We are so excited to bring our second sweet girl home in a few short weeks. I can't wait to see how our family will grow and change, how Nick and I will divide and concur, and how our hearts will nearly burst!!! We are just so blessed!
1st day of Pre-School
When asked why she wants to be a snow queen instead of a regular queen...she simply answered "because I like snow".
